This session explores how two librarians at an R1 institution successfully implemented new systems for auditing, creating, and maintaining a large collection of digital learning objects (DLOs). The presenters will share their workflows, both for assessing existing resources as well as those for the creation of new content. Presenters will also discuss how to maintain DLOs while ensuring that all content stays relevant to students' needs and meets Title II accessibility standards. Both new and experienced librarians will leave this session equipped with the technical know-how and confidence to incorporate these strategies into their own practice.
Participants will: 1. Identify auditing tools for digital content, in order to evaluate their digital learning objects for Title II accessibility compliance and learner engagement 2. Explore project management and content creation tools, in order to develop sustainable workflows for their digital learning content 3. Analyze processes for content maintenance, in order to ensure their digital content continues to meet accessibility standards and learner needs
